What is biodiesel? Biodiesel is a renewable biofuel that is clean-burning and offers a replacement or supplement to regular diesel fuel. Carbon emissions from biodiesel are 50 to 80% less than diesel fuel. It is produced from a variety of feedstocks from used cooking oil, to animal fats and, as in our case, pure vegetable oil. 

Production Process

Through a process called transesterification, our biodiesel is created from a chemical reaction involving our soybean oil, methanol and a catalyst. The result of this process is the production of biodiesel and the by-product crude glycerin. The ratio is nearly 1:1 in regards to soybean oil input to biodiesel output.

Our Products

B100 Biodiesel is a bulk fuel product consisting of 100% unblended biodiesel. B99.9 Biodiesel is a bulk fuel product consisting of 99.9% biodiesel, blended with 0.1% clear diesel fuel. This product is an option relevant to IRS credit incentives. Both biodiesel products meet the requirements of ASTM D 6751 and renewal identification numbers (RINs) are assigned and transferred with each product sale.  Glycerin is a crude bulk by-product of the biodiesel production process.

Flexible Delivery

Our facility is equipped to load Biodiesel by truck and railcar.  Most of our customers lift product at our facilities via their own or 3rd party trucking fleets.  However, we have the flexibility to load customer owned railcars, or we can accommodate delivery via our fleet of Incobrasa tanker railcars.

Technology Driven

We have invested in a 77,220 square foot facility and much equipment over the years to allow for a vertically aligned operation, from manufacturing of our own bottles and cans, to auto-filling, labeling and packaging.

Convenient or Customized

We label products with our own Long Life brand, but also have the flexibility to accommodate any private label requirements or requests.

Diverse Product Line

Our focus started on the 48 ounce bottle product when our bottling facility launched in 2004.  We have since added a number of other product lines including 1 gallon bottles, 16 ounce bottles, 4 liter bottles and 4 liter cans.
